    A sad NSV, but 5 years after inheriting a number of my mother's rings, I was able to slip her wedding ring onto my finger with room to spare. I would rather she was wearing it.

    I'm very sorry for your loss. Congratulations on your progress.

    Love these NSVs.

    I had a bug on Monday. Throwing up all day. Yesterday didn't eat much over my target cals - but still went and completed w4d2 of c25k last night. I felt as week as a kitten about an hour before but I had a banana and a good talk to myself and went late on. Oh and I only nailed that mother kisser. The 2nd 5 minute run was ended by me shouting 'YES' quite loudly waking up a few of the patrons in the gym but hey ho.

    They're all big boys (actually some of them were enormous) but I can take a few funny looks from super fit super strong men and women as I wobble off a treadmill.

    What they don't know is that 8 weeks ago I could barely run for 1 minute. Now I'm running for 16 out of 30 and I will smash the 8 minutes whilst I'm on my holidays in France next week.

    You can do it! I can't believe you ran the day after a stomach bug, though. That's impressive!

    I'm on C25K Week 7 Day 2 (completed) - we can do it!

    I squatted 125lbs 7x yesterday. even though I'm sure most people consider it very light I've been excited to hit that # for a while. I was so nervous I had my daughter come out in case I hurt myself but I was suprised i was able to keep perfect form and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be!
    Youre awesome, and that is a lot of weight! I just moved on from body weight squats and added a barbell-with 40lbs on it. I cant wait to get up to 125! You rock and are so strong!!!

    Was able to do a side plank for the first time in about 4 years after having 2 twisted vertebrae in my neck, a shoulder injury and an elbow injury all on the same side (the one that was holding up my bodyweight).

    Great job-you must be very proud! Way to overcome your injury :)

    Went to the grocery store starving. Saw limited edition smores Oreos. Picked them up...and then put them back! If I knew I would have the willpower to not binge I would've gotten them, but alas I am not there yet.

    No more "Saturn Ring" around my belly due to tight pants.

    Started going to the gym in the past couple of weeks to help make myself better. It's a small gym, and is empty in the morning, but today I turned up at the same time as a younger guy. It honestly took 5mins of building myself up to go in and overcome the thoughts of "He'll think I'm just fat"... "What if I can't do much compared to him?"... "What if I need a break? Then I'll just look even more unhealthy!".

    In the end, I'm quite glad I went in. We said hello and then just got on with our own thing. Not so terrifying after all. I still compared myself at times but feeling like I somehow had to prove myself today made me work even harder than I would have had I been in there alone. I left there looking like a sweaty beetroot.

    Made it through my first kickboxing class without embarrassing myself. Looking forward to my next class. :sweat_smile:

    Ok so this is a scale victory in disguise but we do a weight loss group at work, nothing serious just for fun and we just weigh in each week. Anyway today I achieved my 10% weight loss since the beginning of the year. I'm second on the leaderboard and creeping up on the person in first place very fast! :)

    My NSV is that I am sticking with it! I have gone from a 26W to a 22W....47 lbs gone and only a few people have noticed. In the past I would let that get me down but for some reason this time I don't care if people notice or not because I notice and I feel good! This is the first time that I don't feel like I am dieting but instead its a life style change for me. Still have 80 lbs to go so my journey is far from over but its 1 lb and 1 day at a time for me this time! :-)

    Can now fit in a size 14 dress (used to wear 20-22). I always end up lower in pant size compared to dress size. Stepsister's wedding is still months away so I'll have to start shopping for a dress in early October.

    Started being able to do traditional push ups again, rather than knee push ups.

    Completed a full swim workout in an hour this morning. I have a book of workouts that I use, but always end up cutting it short. But not today! I did the full set, and swam 2.35km in total :D
